We left Seattle on Saturday afternoon and traveled towards our first stop, Juneau. We were at sea for a day and a half on our journey towards Alaska. In this time, we spent some quality time together on the boat enjoying some of the different types of entertainment that the ship offered...we went to an art auction and also enjoyed the entertainment of a comedian as well as some singers and dancers. On Sunday, we also took some time out to have a gospel discussion and to share our testimonies with one another. It was a pretty special way to stop and reflect upon the Sabbath day. On Monday, we arrived in beautiful Juneau, Alaska. This was a special stop because the Hoffenreichs lived in Juneau. In fact, Zech was born in Juneau. They have family there and so their cousin, Mariah, came and picked us up and toured us around all day...which was very nice of her. We saw some pretty amazing sights...the Mendenhall Glacier, Eagle River, the Shrine of St. Therese, Water Wheel Plaza (Pops actually constructed this building), and even saw where the first missionaries came to open up the land of Alaska for the spreading of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It was a great day...I even got to pick up and hold a piece from the glacier! :)
